Nantes Solicitors Welcomes Newly Qualified Solicitor Stephanie Bond
Nantes Solicitors is delighted to announce that Stephanie Bond has now qualified as a Solicitor, specialising in Civil Litigation and Private Client law.
Stephanie’s journey with Nantes began in 2021 when she first joined the firm as an Administration Assistant. Her drive and commitment quickly saw her progress to a training contract, during which time she gained experience across a broad range of legal areas. She has since established a particular interest and skillset in contentious probate, possession proceedings, and other civil disputes, whilst also building strong foundations in Private Client work, including Wills, Probate, and Powers of Attorney.
During her training, Stephanie successfully represented clients at trial, securing positive outcomes in her civil litigation cases, demonstrating both her advocacy skills and her determination to achieve the best results for clients.
Prior to joining Nantes, Stephanie studied Law at Bournemouth University, graduating with a 2:1 while raising her young daughter. Alongside her studies, she supported her peers as a Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL) Leader, showcasing the leadership and mentoring qualities she has carried into her legal career.
Commenting on her qualification, Stephanie said:
“I’m incredibly proud to have qualified as a Solicitor with Nantes. The firm has supported me every step of the way, and I look forward to building my career here and continuing to help clients through what are often very challenging times in their lives.”
Cherise Luke-Bennett, Solicitor and Director at Nantes Solicitors, added:
“We are thrilled to see Stephanie qualify as a Solicitor. She has shown outstanding dedication, skill, and compassion for clients. We look forward to seeing her develop her practice further as part of our Dispute Resolution and Private Client teams.”
